How to make Char Siu Chicken, a Chinese-style savoury, sweet, and sticky red honey roasted BBQ chicken.
Char siu (叉烧)or Chinese BBQ pork is as iconic as Peking duck at Chinese restaurants. This quintessential sweet and savory roast pork is easy to make at home and super versatile! You can enjoy it on a bed of plain white rice or use the leftover to make roast pork fried rice, char siu bao, and more.
Char siu, iconic vibrantly red roasted Chinese BBQ pork, is one of my all-time favorite meals. This particular homemade version is the one my mom made all the time throughout my childhood – it's truly a treasured family recipe & we're thrilled to share it with you. It starts with a char siu marinade, which creates the signature spiced-sweet-savory flavor. Despite the fact that it's super rich & complex in flavor, our char siu marinade is made with just 4 simple staple ingredients: soy sauce, dark brown sugar, garlic, & Chinese five spice. If you're after the signature red color, you can add in a few drops of red food coloring, too. From there, it simply roasts in the oven until the BBQ pork is juicy & tender, with a slight crisp-caramelization around the edges. To take it one step further, we like to finish the pork under the broiler, which is a simple way to emulate traditional Chinese 'fork roasted' flavor at home. Char siu pork is endlessly versatile – serve over a comforting pile of rice or use as a flavorful add-in to stir-fried noodles, steamed bao buns or baked manapua, fried rice, & more!

Recipe video above. Your favourite Chinese barbecue pork made at home! Slow cooked so it's juicy on the inside with the most incredible sticky glaze, this is finger licking' good! Chicken version here.
So what makes a good char siu? 1. The taste. it should be sweet, balanced with a certain degree of saltiness. It has to be sweet or else it is not char siu. The char siu must also have a good amount of smokiness resulting from the charcoal burnt caramelised sugar. 2. The Glaze. It is not a possibility, it is a necessity. The char siu MUST have that ultimate glossy charred sauce coating every bit of the meat. 3. The texture. Juicy and tender but at the same time not too oily.
